English Commentary
Looking around, Hanuman noticed a bed chamber, with a heavenly dais on which he saw a couch encrusted with crystals, vaidurya, and inlaid with colourful ivory and gold. It had an exquisite rich covering. Hanuman chances upon Mandodari, wife of Ravana -- mistakes her for Sita on account of her beauty and charm.
